High School Physics Teachers' Day

Click here to download a registration form

A special day has been prepared on Monday, July 24 for high school physics teachers that have never attended a national AAPT Meeting. Qualified teachers will receive a discounted registration fee of $85. This fee is much less than the usual early bird one-day registration fee of $260 for AAPT members and $475 for non-members. We are offering this special registration fee, because we want to encourage you to sample what AAPT has to offer high school physics teachers. We are confident that once you see what AAPT has to offer, you will become an active AAPT member.

• Journals: The Physics Teacher & American Journal of Physics
• ComPADRE Digital Library of Free Online Resources
